SUI, May 5 (APP): Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti on Monday laid the foundation stone of the Sui-Kashmore Road, calling it milestone towards a new era of development and prosperity in the region.
Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony held in Sui, Balochistan CM Sarfraz Bugti said that “the launch of the Sui-Kashmore road would usher a new era of development, uplift of deprived area, and stability for the region”.
Chief Minister said the project would significantly transform Dera Bugti and surrounding areas by improving connectivity and strengthening the local economy.
“The Sui-Kashmore Road is a journey towards development and stability. It will not only improve transportation but also boost trade, create employment opportunities, and make access to healthcare and education easier for the people,” said Bugti.
The ceremony was attended by Federal Parliamentary Secretary for Petroleum Mian Khan Bugti, Chairman District Council Dera Bugti Mir Ghulam Nabi Shambani, local government representatives, tribal elders, and a large number of local people.
